Graveyard Keeper 2 Patch 1.007 Targets Crashes, Exploits, and FPS Drops

A broad stability update addresses session-breaking crashes, item-duplication exploits, and a save-triggered FPS collapse that could drag performance to roughly 2 frames per second.

Graveyard Keeper 2

Lazy Squirrel's follow-up to its cult gravekeeping sim has received patch 1.007, a wide-ranging fix pass assembled largely from player-submitted reports. The update touches crashes, movement bugs, crafting systems, farming, and UI — a scope that suggests the game's post-launch period has been active on both sides of the feedback loop.

What changed

Crashes & stability

  • Fixed repeated exception/error pop-ups that could break a session
  • Fixed a crash when a zombie caretaker attempted to pick up items from inventory

Exploits & items

  • Closed item-duplication exploits, including bag-to-bag transfers and alchemy/farmer bag abuse
  • Dynamite can now be destroyed or sold

Crafting & workstations

  • Study table now correctly awards science points; previously unstudiable items addressed
  • Potter's wheel no longer gets stuck on Craft, and can now be destroyed
  • Polished stone is obtainable again
  • Tempering Expert perk correctly grants its Mastery bonus and unlocks Master Armor and sword crafting

Movement & collision

  • Fixed getting stuck on pier stairs and on a hatch with a workbench placed over it
  • Fixed being wedged between workstations, chests, and extensions when pushed by a zombie
  • Cleaned up collision issues in the first section of Town

Farming, graphics & UI

  • Fixed inability to harvest the bush near the factory entrance
  • Player's head no longer disappears while planting
  • Clay storage now reflects its actual fill level visually
  • Fixed mixed-up draw layers on the conveyor supplier station
  • Placeholder text replaced by the correct character name "Jully"

Performance

  • Fixed severe FPS drops — down to approximately 2 FPS — when saving

Taken together, the patch should make routine play considerably more stable, particularly for players who leaned on crafting progression or encountered the save-induced slowdown.
